When I hear about the pre-marital counseling sessions that couples take, I wonder if they are told the truth. A lot of people worry about what marriage will be like in comparison to a dating relationship. Well, it should change everything because marriage is different.

What we really wonder if it will change everything for the worse. Will the things we once loved about them suddenly drive us crazy? Guessing: Probably. Will the sex be less exciting? Just a hunch: Probably…Some days!

Even if marriage probably changes everything, when it is the right person, isn’t it worth it?

What do you believe will change once you are officially married?
